The hardest thing the average Aiueri can hag to learn is the art of waiting He is so used to rushing everything, even his meajs, and utiliiing the last second of his waking time, that he can not bear to wait. He thinks he is wait ing something, or is being done out of something, or that the other fellow is getting ahead of him in some way; his patience is HQ and his calculations up set by the mere suggestion. j There are people who really believe that no good can come to Astoria unless it comes while they are thinking about it; that the only virtue of ac-cesa lies in its instant realixation; they are not willing to bide their time and the time of those to whom she must look for the happy overtures; and therein lies their folly, for time is of the essence of all things, good or bad, and it pays ta cultivate the art of waiting in order to be always on time, never ahead nor behind it. ' Those people who are always looking for the audden and unaccountable boom, here, and elsewhere, are only doing the fcolih stunt of forcing the hand of time, and will learn to their sorrow that things inopportune are often worse than those things which never come to pass. Patience may be made to count its value in dollars as well as any other useful attribute. ' ' honored hold for Suture reference that stall eke out the pride of the recipient, or contribute to that of his descendant) they are never allowed to disappear as ordinary correspondence is, but waae to holster the future of those who bold them, with a devotion that U almost ndiculous. And at some inopportune moment, under conditions when alienee h the dearest quality known, they spring into the vivid ht of extraordinary crisis, to the misery of the author and the discredit and bad faith of the per son who aids in their development. - The rule is older than, recorded time itself, and there are myriads of wrvtehed ex smplos of the lia4er that lies In their test and Its publicity. Presidents, gov cmors. senators, congressmen, and all the leaser hosts of civie servants, have figured in thesa episodes, and proven the measure of dancer, and it would seem the lesson is ineffective, aa the habit goes on, and steadily furnishes its frequent illustration of incalculable folly. A LIVELY SUMMER. There is a lively and delightful sea son cut out for the City by the-Sea, The coming of Vke-Presidsnt Fairbanks, during the coming month; the big cele bration being arranged for the "glorious Fourth; the extraordinary pleasure, rare and new, of the great Scandinav ian aangerfest in August, and the in dispensable and altogether enjoyable an nual regatta about September first, forms a series of events to which this whole country is looking forward with sheer delight; and all these things, mind you, aside from the charm and cheery engagements of ordinary life in this favored section, where the summer end fall months are but one long period of pleasure upon the mere hypothesis of existence. It is worth one's while to dwell in Astoria at any time, but this year it is to be a downright privilege,1 and is certain to be widely appreciated by the tens of thousands who have billed their outings here or hereabout, 1 SAFETY 15 HONESTY. President Roosevelt, in his Indiana polis speech on Memoral Day, lays es- pecial stress on' the value of honesty in public life and urges reprisals against the dishonest man wherever he may be found. Of course, this doctrine is older than the hills, but there are times when it is conspicuously to be exerted and cherished; seasons when the cardinal virtue is in an eclipse, as it were, and must be drawn into the fullness of iight and public and estimate; when the people get too careless and their in difference begets a scope of dishonesty that is likely to become chronic throuh out the nation and we are frightened at its universal aspect. Most men are, primarily, honest, and remain so until example, or chance, or specific allurement weakens their ad herance to the principle, and one small lapse succeeds another, until the ex ception becomes a rule, and the once honest man is calloused against the sway of conscience. The president is right when he tells the people to "hunt such a man out of public life." But the trouble lies with the people. They will not protect themselves against the com mon danger, but wait until its grossness awakens a broad enough sentiment around them to warrant their expres sion and aid. There is too much lati tude given; too much dalliance with the evil. To make a man responsible for his first known departure from the course of rigid honesty, is to save him, as well all others affected by his derelic tion. There is no safety in human asso. ciation, unless there be honesty, pure find simple. This is an organic standard however unpopular it may be with those whose codes are notoriously elastic and who disparage the rigor of the rule. 0 DANGEROUS LETTER WRITING. ' The man in exalted place who culti vates the habit of letter writing is putting his "head in the lion's mouth." Great men's letters are cherished as none others are, and they are kept in secret places hoarded and cherished and EDITORIAL SALAD. Four battle ships of the Dreadnaught type have been contracted for in the British shipyards in the name of Brazil and Argentina, but it is believed they are a speculative investment and will be offered for sale. The sudden transfer to any navy of such leviathans would be somewhat sensational. fraielirar 1 HIS D Making a bid for popular patronage needs 110 diplomacy, finesse or sharpness in its management. Plain, clean, honest methods are what the public tie to. These methods you will find in force here at all timca. We attribute our success in a great measure to their practice. We are here to serve you faithfully; want this store to be pointed out and spoken ot as the place where all classes of the community may come and feel that they are being dealt with in absolute fairness. ?

John Smith's portrait adorn the 1-cent postage stamp issued in honor of the Jamestown exposition. If the members of the Smith family will each invest in one of these souvenir stamps the new postmaster general will be sble to report a surplus instead of a deficit. ' In the present population of the United States are 1,200,000 Canadians who have removed to this country. For every American who migrates to the Dominion 15 Canadians come to the United States to crow no with the great republic. 0 A government clerk in Yokohama who embezzled 5000 yen tried to drown him self, and all the superior dfficers con nected with his department paid fines and resigned. Japan is unacquainted with Pooh Bah as an official type. The annual consumption of beer in the United States amounts to eighteen gallons per capita. The figures do not, of course, include the export to Kansas; Spring, the shy young thing, will soon be three months sby, with Both ing left to do except hand the calendar over to summer. COMFORTING WORDS. Many a Astoria Household W1U Find Them So. To have the pains and aches of a bad back removed; to be entirely free, from annoying, dangerous urinary disorders is enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove com forting words to hundreds of Astoria readers. Mrs. Captain C. G. Groves, of 824 Raleigh street, Portland, Or., says: "Lapse of time has not lessened the con fidence I have had in Doan's Kidney Pills since February, 1903, when I pub licly recommended them. I had used them in treating kidney trouble of several years' standing. It originally started with dull aching in the small of back over the kidneys. Colds aggravated the trouble and made the pain sharp and acute. ' Any extra exertion would bring on a prostrating attack. I had tried var ious remedies for the trouble without avail, but Doan's Kidney Pills began to help me right after I started using them. They gradually banished the backache and pain in the loins, strengthened the IV: iff iljli u Ladies' Coats 48-iach length Fancy checked Broadcloth and braid trimmed, regular value lj-50, WIClAl I0DAY AND MONDAY ONLY Im - , 5 cinch fancy checked, beautifully trimmed in velvet and Sautiche braid, regular value, IS.50, SPECIAL 15.73. . 48-inch Fancy check half latin lining, trimmed with fancy buttoni and armure lilk.
